Description
The sand quarry is situated approximately 2.5 km southwest from the village of Zaječí, between Nové Mlýny, Přítluky and Bulhary. The access road to the quarry leads from the road between Přítluky and road No. 421. The material is mined by bucket excavators from under the surface, from a 4-6 m thick wall, and is then transported by belt conveyors to the nearby processing plant, where it is washed and sorted into different grain-size fractions.
